Perhaps why Iwhen it comes to casting a young star in a romedy, the À rst name that comes to any director’s mind is this young Khan who plays the lover to utmost perfection. Although the actor’s last rom-com, Gori Tere Pyaar Mein didn’t weave magic at the box-ofÀ ce, IK is still considered one of the favourite romantic heroes in Bollywood. StarWeek even recently asked the superstar what’s the secret behind playing these roles so effortlessly and he said, “I get that space. There’s a certain style that comes naturally to me in these rom-coms. You’re kind of straddling genres in these rom-coms because it’s a little bit Indian and a little bit western. You get to play a kind of humour that generally does not go in conventional Hindi À lms. That’s why I really enjoy it.” Here’s hoping we get to see IK in many more rom-coms. We all love watching him play the mushy lover boy after all.

Her house staff and team members have even quizzed her on how she plans to keep the trophies later. And according to our source, the actress has told them that she plans to go shopping soon to pick up a showcase where she can place the awards neatly and in an organised manner. Well, we hope she À nds something big enough to contain all her trophies as many more are yet to come! The Admirer The entire nation swoons over the oh-so-gorgeous Madhuri Dixit.
